HOW MUCH WILL IT COST TO USE THE BUYER'S AGENT?

No more than it will cost if you use a traditional real estate service.

You choose the method of payment. The most common way is the same way other real estate agents are paid: the typical commission paid at closing is usually divided between the listing broker and the broker of The Buyer's Agent.
